The Solana Doylestown

I have been here 6 months and my time here has been positive. I have been in several facilities over the past year and the staff and residents at Solana Doylestown have been more than helpful and healing.

We cannot put into words how wonderful The Solana of Doylestown has been for my mother who has been residing there since [date removed]. It is clean, bright, and cheerful and is incredibly well maintained. If you are looking for a place where your loved one will be treated with love, compassion, professionalism, and patience, where they are respected and safe, this is the place to take them. The staff is extremely attentive to each person’s needs and are always willing to go above and beyond. They keep families updated on the resident’s care, their concerns and send out a monthly calendar of activities for the family to view. The competent and friendly staff keeps the residents active rather than them just sitting in their rooms all day with such activities as daily aerobic classes, craft activities, weekly live music, lots of card and brain games and scenic drives. Thank you all at The Solana for being such shining stars, for loving Mom and for all that you ALL have done for our family.

Staff is very good and helpful. Each one has several jobs to do. They know the residents very well and how to care for each one in a very friendly way. This is where I belong.

They really need better trained aids and to improve on the current nursing staff. They also could use a better chef and menu choices. More activities would be nice involving lectures, or making different hand crafted things. Based off of the experience, I would no recommend The Solana Doylestown to others at this time.

If you have long-term care insurance, file the claim and let the insurance company work out the details. Mix up your visits. I always visit on Sundays, and try to throw in some random visits on other days. They occasionally have holiday celebrations. Like Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter, etc. These are awesome, and such a help. I find taking my mother out to be so stressful. It's wonderful when I don't have to. The food and dining staff are wonderful. The staff is really helpful with things like getting my mother ready for weddings, and big family events. They somehow can convince her to bathe. I don't know how. They check on my mother often. I recently visited for three hours, and in that three hours they came to check on her four times. These people do God's work. I can't emphasize that enough. I want to hug them every time I see them.

I’m a respite care “patient “ recovering from a fractured femur. I was concerned about fitting in at a residential facility but from day one the staff was pleasant and made me feel welcome. I have physical and occupational therapy and several activities a day. My medication is closely monitored . They are encouraging and working to get me home. A place for me and your Mom!

My father was at Solana 2023. They were understaffed quite a bit of time and lied about that. When he first got there, the food was excellent then it went downhill. I felt as if I had to go every day to make sure of his safety and cleanliness there I changed his sheets and clean the bathroom Near and to the very end of my father’s life I was there almost 24 seven monitoring him because they couldn’t seem to get his morphine to him on a needed basis I have everything documented and it’s not a place you would want to send your family member at the end HORRIBLE!! I’m reading this and if there’s any other way, I could tell people about this I will please don’t let them fool you.

We're not really happy with The Solana. The residents are allowed to mosey about the facility on their own as they please. We thought there would be more care. The food is lousy. Everybody complains about it. And they're a paying a lot of money for the food that they're getting.

I wouldn't consider Solana to be assisted living. They need better help for elderly care, they need a better chef, the activities were limited, and the nursing staff needs more bodies.

They are sometimes short staffed. The staff is good. My loved one did not like the food. Compared to other places, it's more affordable. We picked this community, because they had a prefurnished respite care room, the cost was good, and they allowed my loved one, to pay on a monthy basis with no upfront cost.

This is a very nice place for your loved one. The only thing is that the food is not good and we think that this should be taken care of. The staff are very nice and helpful with any of our needs for our loved one. This has been a positive experience.

They do a good job at this community. They take excellent care of and genuinely care about the residents. They are extremely responsive to the needs of the family and the residents of the community. This is also a very cozy and smaller community and it makes my mom feel like she is part of a family.

I chose the The Solana because the quality of care looked good and the facility is nice. The residents are very active during the day, but at night it is more just movies. The activities director is excellent and attentive. I do think the evening caregivers need to be trained better on how to work the TVs. A lot of staff turnover, but they are really trying to get that figured out. I would definitely recommend to others looking.

Favorite so far! We’ve seen two but want to look around before committing.

We chose the Solana because of all the above rating questions. It was clean, the food is very good, and the staff members were great. The room sizes here are perfect for the needs. I would recommend them.

We chose this facility because of the location, the value, as well as the overall offering and quality of the facility. The rooms are good sized, they are more than adequate and they do have other sizes that they offer. I have eaten here and the food is good, they have a good variety and if you ever want something else than what is on the menu, other options are available. I would recommend The Solana Doylestown.
